No Chinese dub?
Seriously, what kind of moron puts a foreign movie out on DVD and doesn't include the original language dub? Not to mention that the English dubbing on this is terrible, almost as if it's mocking the movie. I hope this wonderful film gets a real release. Until then, I suggest you just download Tai Chi Master instead.

two of the greats
in martial arts are brought to us - Jet Li and Michelle Yeoh. I thought i had saw this in the past under another name. The film is well made and i personally prefer to watch this in its original language and not dubbed. So i don't know how great or bad that transfer was.

But the film itself is great, it has the wire-effect going on. Its used when needed and its never anything outrageously crazy or anything. The fighting among the characters is some of the best especially when Jet Li begins to master Tai Chi. Nothing that villian does in the end fight scene is enough to barely scratch him. Its different to see two characters that started the movie out and life as friends. That they would turn out to be mortal enemies. He just couldn't see past all the fame, glory and money which led him down that path.

A solid film, all around. 4 stars

Tai Chi Master
I already forgot the movie. Made no impact. I'm not sure what I expected so I should not be disappointed.

Is this the same movie as Tai Chi Master?
I enjoyed this move a lot, very entertaining. I tried to rent Tai Chi Master, and was told it had been re-released as Twin Warrior? Now I see that the reviews for the two movies are intermingled here on Amazon...so is are they the same movie?

Great movie! Dub was a bit weird and didn't match the subtitles very well.
I agree with some of the other complainants here that the dub seems way off when compared to the subtitles. In some cases it completely changes the meaning / intent of the lines. Overall, it was alright. If ya' turn off the subtitles ya' won't know what you're missing.

Aside from the dub, I really enjoyed this movie. I thought the fight scenes were great and well-executed. I'm a fan of Jet Li (and Jackie Chan movies), and thought this was a great Jet Li flick. The camera work was a bit sub-par, perhaps owing to when it was shot. Seemed a bit grainy or rough to me. But the story and the rest made up for it in my opinion. I'd certainly take this over Warriors of Heaven and Earth, Butterfly Sword or Zu Warriors any day of the week.

If you like this movie, you'll probably like Jet Li's Fearless or Hero as well. Likewise Iron Monkey.

If I had it to do over gain, I'd probably still buy this one, even with the odd dub and slightly so-so image quality (just not as crisp as things like Hero and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon). Good times!
